My Take: Good News! The A5 is a VERY sweet car. Bad News! The rates STILL suck. A5 looks sweetest in black. The accent lighting on the headlights makes the car look super-futuristic and gives off an “oooh-ahhhh” type of reaction, kind of like BMWs “Halo” lighting. It may take some months before we start seeing better lease rates on the A5. Hopefully, your lease isn’t expiring too soon if you are aiming for the A5. Just keep your eyes peeled on the rates every month, and the moment they drop to your price range, jump on it. That’s what I did with my G37 and I think I got the best deal of the year thus far.
